Opened 31 October 1930 and the architect was Murray Brown. This theatre had an atmospheric lobby with a castle design complete with stars and clouds on the ceiling but the auditorium was not atmospheric and had a timbered ceiling. It was demolished in 1974.

Someone should remember this Ralph Kneebone the manager had a promotion on a movie! Something theatre managers today have no idea about.Mr.Kneebone had personal appearance of the Frankenstein monster to promote "FRANKENSTEIN MEETS THE SPACE MONSTER" he wanted to boost ticket sales at midnight. Thanks Mr. Kneebone.Glad i could get you on CT. Feb. 10 1969.
